World Zionist Congress

Leaders' voice

After a long two weeks of intensive political work at and following the Zionist Congress, a final agreement has been signed that will divide up positions and responsibilities as well as anchor funding and policy commitments from the national institutions over the next five years: at WZO, KKL/JNF, the Jewish Agency, and Keren HaYesod. MERCAZ’s representatives and their teams played not just a leading role, but perhaps the central role in securing a broad agreement that unifies the Jewish people and enables these institutions to advance their important work at this pivotal moment for Israel and the Jewish people.
